Kuster Unveils Veterans for Annie Group
**You can watch the announcement HERE**
(Nashua, NH) – Today, Congresswoman Annie Kuster (NH-02) announced her Veterans for Annie group. Veterans for Annie consists of more than 100 Granite State veterans who have endorsed Kuster for re-election. At the announcement Kuster was introduced by Ambassador Terry Schumaker and Airman First Class Dan Toomey who spoke about Kuster’s work on the Veterans Affairs Committee to support the needs of veterans. As the daughter of a World War II veteran and POW, Kuster has worked to address the healthcare and service needs of veterans in New Hampshire as well as bolster economic opportunity and end veteran homelessness. The full list of Veterans for Annie is available below.
"I'm incredibly honored and humbled to have the support of these brave men and women who have served our nation in uniform," said Kuster. "As the daughter of a World War II veteran, fighting for our service members is a personal issue. I've been proud to serve on the House Veterans Affairs Committee where we've come together across party lines to improve access to care and services for our veterans and have worked to bolster economic opportunity for veterans and ensure they have access to stable housing."
Annie has fought to improve access to health care services for veterans in New Hampshire, and was one of two Democrats to co-sponsor the VA MISSION Act. This important legislation helps veterans in states like New Hampshire that lack a full-service VA medical facility, by expanding access to the Choice Program for all eligible veterans in the Granite State. She is working to expand economic opportunity for veterans throughout the state and leading efforts to address veteran homelessness.
Veterans for Annie includes veterans from every county in New Hampshire's Second Congressional District.
